Guys, it's all good. First off SomeGuy, don't feel bad, I'm the one that should feel bad. You gave me beautiful plants and I kilt em. Sorry your work went to nothing. We are different people, but if I were you I'd be a bit pissed at me. lol
And about the other plants, I'm not one to chase a sick plant. If it looks like it wants to die, I'd rather spend time and effort on a plant that wants to live. I'm not going to toss them in the trash until they are good and gone, but that day is not far off.
It's a bummer, but really that's all I'm taking it as, a bummer. No big deal.
The plants in soil are Dog, but honestly they have never looked great. Weird structure. Healthy as can be for being neglected and not watered on schedule.
Ah well. And DCobeen, lol... you weren't here for my soil adventures last year. Me and soil don't do too well together. Much more comfortable in water. I spent about 8 or 9 months on 2 grows that got me about 3.5 oz. Using a 1000w the whole time. Talk about fail.
I have them in the small DWC I always start stuff in. I don't use anything other than water to clean my gear. I have not used my LED at all... just flouros. They have the exact same bottles of nutes I always use, literally the same bottles.
I think it might be they were used to a lot more light than I was giving them? I don't know.
And OGE, the yield did compare to my HID yeilds as far as g/w went. Pretty much right on. The buds are much smaller however, but the smell is the best I've done, high is really great, and the buds look nice, just small. However I think the buds being small also has to do with the way the plats were grown by me. Super branchy. If there would have been less buds I think they would have been bulkier.
Another thing was my roots. The roots were AMAZINGLY SMALL. Not sure what that was about either. I think it may have had to do with me removing the dams in the tubes. ??? But they were very small compared to normal.
I like the LED"s a lot and think they produce better weed, at around the same g/w ratio as hids... at least in my setup.
